The Witch House is the last structure in Salem that is directly tied to the Witchcraft Trials of 1692. This was the 17th century home of Judge Jonathan Corwin. We are a historic house museum offering fascinating insight into this period.

The Salem Witch Museum has told the story of the victims of the Salem witch trials of 1692 since 1972. Located opposite Salem Common, the museum prides itself on being a major attraction on Boston’s historic North Shore.

"Half-way down a by-street of one of our New England towns, stands a rusty wooden house, with seven acutely peaked gables facing towards various points of the compass, and a huge, clustered chimney in the midst." -Nathaniel Hawthorne, 1851
